Chapter 342: Territory

"Who is this place?"

Standing on the winding river of Zhenzhu, Yang Feng pointed ahead and said.

There, his cavalry swept through a nomadic camp like hungry wolf. Hundreds of herders who were rushing to fight were instantly submerged in the dust of their horses' hooves. Then these vicious guys rushed towards the livestock. They were familiar with the lives of herders and quickly drove out all the horses, camels, cattle and sheep. A few shameless guys simply rushed into the tent and carried out the crying women, looking like standard barbarians. The children behind them cried and chased after them, and were immediately kicked aside...

"You want it too!"

Yang Feng shouted majesticly.

The cavalry were stunned for a moment, then quickly lowered their heads and carried the children.

"Yes, just raise it, especially this Hu girl. If they grow up on the grassland, it will be ruined. The smell on her body can make people vomit. If the rice and white flour are well raised, she will look handsome!"

Xu Hui, the commander of the investigation battalion beside him, said with deep emotion.

I guess he has raised it.

At this time, Yang Feng had already reorganized the 3,000 troops. After all, it was difficult for only teams to manage so many people. He divided the 3,000 cavalry into six battalions, each with five hundred people, and then selected twelve smart and capable teams as chiefs and deputy battalions. This was a temporary organization and would automatically disband after returning to the Tang Dynasty. Of course, if they could not return to the Tang Dynasty, they would naturally not have to disband.

"It's hard to say who is here. Apart from Tuozhe, Baishui, Talas, and Julan, the surrounding grasslands are nomadic. These nomads have no idea of ​​territory. They go wherever the water and grass are abundant. These Hu people should be Tuqi Shi, but Tuqi Shi is not a single one. They used to be Tielle and surrender to the Turks. However, since the Duke of Xingzhuang Su Dingfang wiped out the Turks, there was no real leader in this area. Although Xue Yantuo later rose up later, Xue Yantuo was then destroyed by us. These nomads have all kinds of tribes, and they follow whoever is stronger. Before, they listened to Tuqi Shi, but there were all tribes within them. We collectively call it Zahu. It's hard to say which branch it was. In fact, except for the nine surnames of Zhaowu, the rest of the Western Regions are so messy.

In fact, these miscellaneous Husbands in the Western Regions are easy to deal with.

They are only strong and noble. As long as there is no powerful tribe gathering each tribe, they will always be a mess. When Su Lu died, the cavalry and Shi immediately disbanded and then killed each other.

As long as we don’t let them have a leader, they will always be in a mess.

On the contrary, as long as they have a leader, it will immediately become a terrifying force."

Xu Hui said.

"You know a lot!"

Yang Feng said unexpectedly.

"The subordinates lived in the Western Regions for generations. The great-grandfather of the subordinates, who followed Duke Zhuang of Xing to destroy the Western Turks, later stayed in the Western Regions and lived in Kucha for generations."

Xu Hui said with a smile.

"Su Dingfang is indeed a genius!"

Yang Feng sighed.

It is hard to imagine how brave and invincible the Tang army of Su Dingfang was to fight this place. You must know that it is not very far from the Alchemy Sea, and it is truly thousands of miles away from Chang'an. He has always wondered how such a top-level general turned into a villain of Xue Renguili?

"The lieutenant, there is a big food racquet behind it."

At this time, a team was rushing from behind and saying.

"Don't worry about them!"

Yang Feng said.

Their location at this time was actually basically in the same east-west line as Talas, but it was still separated by hundreds of miles of wasteland. At this time, the Great Cannibal must have received the news that he had rescued his prisoners. He either returned north or went south to Ningyuan, but he had to pass by the Johanti first to go to Ningyuan. That was the only entrance to the Feyganna Basin, and the Great Cannibal had already controlled it. It was not easy for them to go there. In this way, it was normal to return north, and if you return north, you had to go to Talas. You could only choose to bypass this fortress. In order to prevent them from bypassing Talas, the Great Cannibal must have sent a large number of scouts to search.

But Yang Feng was not worried about this.

First of all, his advancement was fast, and it was difficult for the Dashi Cavalry to catch up in a short time, and the place he was going to go next was different.

What he was going to take next was a route that he was not worried about being pursued at all.

Or a route that no one dares to chase.

Five days later, Yang Feng's army appeared in the north of the Zhenzhu River, and the Tianshan Mountains reached the northwest of the Kalatao Mountain at the end of the northwest.

"This is really a terrible realm!"

Even with his rich experience, he could only let out such a sigh.

At this time, there was an endless wasteland under his feet. In the mottled yellow sand mixed with dust, clusters of weeds and low shrubs grew tenaciously, but it was difficult to see how much green it was, it was a half-dead look. Such a scenery seemed endless in his vision. A gust of wind blew, sand and dust rose with fine dead leaves, and a lonely dying old tree stood like a flag.

The geographical name here is Moinkum Desert.

Passing through this desert is the famous river Chu River or Shuyeshui in the Western Regions. Yang Feng's destination Shuyes is 700 kilometers upstream of this river. This east-west desert is the same east-west Kalata Mountains in the south. It is his guarantee that he will immunize the Great Food Cavalry. No one will cross the Kalata Mountains and cross the desert hundreds of miles to cause trouble for him. This is also the reason why Talata City is a fortress, because Talata City is just blocking the passage to the east.

But it is not easy to cross this desert to reach Chuhe.

You should know that even the nomads of Tukishi rarely come here. It is not easy for his 3,000 army to obtain enough supplies in this desert, two hundred kilometers away from Baikonur Space Center and four hundred kilometers away from the Aral Sea. It is easy to say for food. The Turkic tribes they had just robbed before provided them with enough livestock and camels, which can ensure that they provide food through this desert, but...

"The water is still not found."

Xu Hui, the Anxi army in the Tang Dynasty, said helplessly.

A group of soldiers in front of him were digging down hard among the seemingly promising weeds. Although the sand dug was indeed a little wet, it should be fine to supply a small camel fleet, but it would be nonsense to supply a three thousand army.

"It won't be without water!"

Yang Feng said confidently.

He didn't believe there was no water here. This desert swallowed the Chu River and the Sarey River, and it was impossible for it to be without water!

"Captain, there is a lake in the north!"

At this moment, two cavalrymen searching for water rushed over and shouted excitedly while running.

The soldiers who were waiting in thirst and could not wait to suck the sand and moisture all stood up all at once. Xu Hui was the first to meet him. Two cavalrymen dismounted in front of Yang Feng, bowed excitedly and said, "Capital, there is a lake twenty miles away, what a big one!"

The cheers immediately rang.

"Go and go and have a look!"

Yang Feng waved his hand and said.

Three thousand cavalrymen quickly got on their horses and followed the two soldiers to the north. The distance of twenty miles was only half an hour. Soon after climbing a sand dune, a lake of at least two square kilometers appeared in front of them. Tang Jun, who had been working for almost a day, rushed down cheering and soon arrived at the lakeside. Xu Hui was the first to jump off his horse, picked up the lake water and took a sip, and then...

"puff!"

He squirted out again.

"Mar, it's salt water!"

He turned his head sadly and said.

All of them were stunned. The unwilling Tang soldiers picked up the lake water, but they drank it and then sprayed it out.

Yang Feng looked at them speechlessly.

It is obvious that the time for him to show off is coming again.

"Get a water bag!"

He said to Yang An, the personal soldier beside him.

Yang An quickly handed a water bag.

Yang Feng took the water bag and dismounted and walked directly to the lakeside. The soldiers all looked at their captain in confusion. Then they saw the captain stretching out his right hand and reaching above the lake surface. At the same time, he put the mouth of the water bag under his right hand with his left hand. Then he looked around and showed a high smile. The next moment, a strange scene appeared, and a white mist appeared on his right hand palm. In a blink of an eye, water droplets dripped from the edge of his palm, and the dripping speed became faster and faster, and soon became a continuous stream of water. He kept walking by the lake in this posture, and the stream continued to fall into the water bag, and the water bag slowly bulged up.

“Try it!”

About half a quarter of an hour later, Yang Feng handed the filled water bag to Xu Hui and said.

Xu Hui took a sip carefully.

"Good water!"

Then he raised his water bag excitedly and shouted.

"Long live the lieutenant!"

All the Tang soldiers around him knelt down on their knees and kowtowed to Yang Feng on the ground, shouting devoutly as if worshiping gods.

"All up. I'm just teaching some immortals. Since brothers follow me, I won't let you die of thirst. To be honest, I've died once before. It was the immortal who sent my soul back and taught me immortal arts and divine power. This is just a trick of carving insects. There are still many immortal arts taught by immortals! Follow me, your good days are still coming!"

Yang Feng said with a smile.

This is what he wants.

This is why he dared to cross the desert with these soldiers. In fact, even without this lake water, he could condense only the water vapor in the ordinary air, but it did not work well on the lake surface, and there was no such effect! Now after this visual stimulation, the trust of these soldiers in him was immediately promoted to blind worship. It can be said that even if he led these people across the Takramagan Desert, these people would not retreat. After all, the Tang Dynasty worshipped immortals. At this time, the Tang Dynasty was respected by Taoism. The Li family called themselves descendants of Li Dan. If an immortal led them, there would be nothing to be afraid of.

Although his condensation speed is not fast, it is still a bit difficult to get the three thousand men to drink as much as possible, but there is no pressure to maintain the minimum demand.
